Cinnamon Protein Loaf

Cinnamon Protein Loaf
I've been craving cinnamon buns and getting ready for a show in March is not good!  So.....this is a healthier version of a cinnamon bun that I threw together!  It tastes just like a cinnamon bun too :)
Ingredients:
1.5 scoops of vanilla protein powder
Splenda or Truvia (2-3 packets)
Cinnamon (however much you want)
1 egg white
1 tsp. of baking powder
Water
Directions:  Take the above ingredients except set aside the half scoop of protein powder and mix together in a bowl.  Pour the mix into a mini loaf pan, or you could use a muffin pan if you prefer that has been sprayed with cooking spray.  Bake the loaf at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes or check until the top is lightly brown.  Meanwhile, to make the icing use the half scoop you set aside and mix with cinnamon, one packet of Splenda or Truvia and a little cold water.  You want this to be somewhat thick since it is the icing, so do not add too much water.  After the loaf is done baking take it out of the pan and let it cool for about 2 minutes.  Punch holes into the loaf and drizzle the icing mix on top.  This tastes great with a cup of coffee!  Enjoy!
